can be, but there are a lot of things in the syncro that are different. what I would do if I had a 2wd and wanted better traction is to put a syncro locking transmission in. not cheap, about two grand, but you end up being able to lock the two back wheels together which is a great advantage. I once had a 65 ch*vy van with posi-traction (same thing essentially) that would go anywhere... it was amazing. good luck. mick ----- Original Message ----- From: developtrust <developtrust@HOME.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Wednesday, December 05, 2001 10:21 AM Subject: converting to 4 wheel drive
